Chapter 490: 438 Majestic Qi Luck, Sacrifice to Heaven and Earth

Xue Hanyi and his sister, along with Mu Binghua from Heart Moon Lake, after arriving in Tiandu, also chose to stay in Pei Xuanjing’s Taoist Temple. This includes Mr. Wu, who had returned from the Imperial City, and several holy monks from the Buddhism School.

One could say that, right now, nearly a quarter of the powerful individuals in the Daming World choose to stay in Pei Xuanjing’s Taoist Temple.

“The great unified imperial dynasty!” exclaimed Mr. Wu.

A great unified imperial dynasty at least needs to receive recognition from most of the world’s prominent forces. Otherwise, it couldn’t possibly attract the heavenly will.

The forces in the Sky Wasteland are mainly split into two types: one type includes the Holy Lands and sacred lineages, while the other type includes the ancestral lands of the imperial dynasties and ancient kingdoms. None of these powerful ancient countries and empires has ever managed to unify their ancestral lands, and hence, they can’t attract the heavenly will.

Even after their arrival in the Sky Wasteland, while they have abundant Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, the competition is much greater. No faction has ever been able to dominate and attract the Heavenly Will from start to end.

Pei Xuanjing’s faced remained calm as he took careful note of these matters they discussed. After a moment of pondering, he figured out many things.

He seemed to have some conjecture as to why Xue Hanyi and the others had come.

Even though the Divine Continent has just begun to revive its Heaven and Earth, and even with a great unified imperial dynasty, an innate limitation makes the powerful imperial dynasties in the Divine Continent not strong compared to the forces in the Sky Wasteland.

If they could seize this opportunity to make early preparations, and even take over others’ nests, they could gain control of the great unified imperial dynasty in the Divine Continent, receive the favor of the heavenly will, and get the blessing of Qi Luck.

However, he just smiled and didn’t join their conversation, nor did he uncover Xue Hanyi’s intention.

Because, by this point, if their plots were indeed as speculated, then they would already have failed, and their plans would never be realized.

The continuous influx of Qi Luck into the Divine Continent resulted in major changes in the Luck Golden Dragon in Tiandu, as well as significant changes in other major cities within Daming. More and more Heaven and Earth Essence Qi came pouring in from all directions toward the Divine Continent.

This phenomenon lasted for more than half a month before it gradually subsided. At this point, Pei Xuanjing felt that his strength, which was originally limited by the Heaven and Earth, had increased somewhat. If he were to exercise his strength to the limit, he should be around the fifth level of the Spirit Realm.

One month later, on the auspicious day chosen by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, the weather was fine, clear, and cloudless.

In Tiandu, a multitude of soldiers enforced martial law throughout the city, each performing their duties and seizing control of various places.

In front of the Ninety-nine Layers of Heaven altar, which was ninety-nine feet tall, the civil and military officials solemnly stood. The strong individuals from all over were also standing in their respective positions, their expressions solemn, and their eyes intensely focused on the Emperor of the Great Dynasty.

Zhu Houji, dressed in imperial robes and adorned with an imperial crown, was holding the jade seal in his hand, quietly standing at the lofty altar stairs.

This staircase has a total of nine thousand nine hundred steps, each hundred steps being one foot high. Once the stairs are ascended and the altar is reached, it is as if they have ascended ninety-nine feet into the Nine Layers of Heaven.

“Your Majesty, the time has come. Please ascend to the altar and perform the Heaven and Earth ritual.” The voice of Yan Song, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, echoed.

Zhu Houji took his steps and ascended the towering sky stairs whose sight followed everyone’s movements slowly.

By the time Zhu Houji reached the top of the Heaven and Earth altar, the figures of Pei Xuanjing, Daoist Qingxu, and that mysterious Mr. Wu appeared before Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing and Daoist Qingxu had experience in presiding over the Enthroning Gods ceremony on Taihe Mountain, so they were naturally today’s ritual hosts. As for Mr. Wu, he volunteered to help. After weighing the options, Pei Xuanjing and the others made up their mind and took a risk to let his counterpart ascend the altar together with them.

Behind the three of them, on the altar, lay the corpse of the Howling Moon Gray Wolf that Pei Xuanjing had killed. Even after such a long time, the beast king’s body hasn’t deteriorated and is still fresh. It was placed on the altar, to serve as the main offering of the ritual.

“Your Majesty, please!” Daoist Qingxu started, indicating the emperor to begin.

Even though they had rehearsed these steps countless times and knew them by heart, when the actual moment arrived, the Emperor of Daming, Zhu Houji, still felt quite excited.

He carefully placed the royal jade seal on the ceremonial table altar and then used his skill to control the Qi Luck of the Daming dynasty to inject it into the royal jade seal.

Buzz!

The royal jade seal emitted a soft hum and a gentle light burst out in an instant, sweeping in all directions, enshrouding the whole of Tiandu within moments, and continued to expand towards the surrounding areas.

At the same moment, the Qi Luck cloud appeared again above Tiandu, with the Qi Luck Golden Dragon roaring loudly, its Dragon Roar Sound reverberating through Heaven and Earth.

Simultaneously, numerous lights soared into the sky from various parts of the Daming Dynasty, its territories, including both the regions previously belonging to the Divine Continent and the newly added territories outside the border with vast grasslands. These lights connected all the areas.

In an instance, it seemed the entire region under the control of the Daming Dynasty was engulfed in this light.

The sound of the Golden Dragon Roar reverberated, even the ordinary people could hear this ear-shattering sound.

Pei Xuanjing’s aura burst out explosively, the terrifying aura shocked the three people around him. Even though Pei Xuanjing hadn’t intentionally targeted them, they couldn’t help but feel their hair stand on end on this small ceremonial altar.

They felt as if they were weak prey animals who had wandered into the territory of large carnivores like tigers, leopards, and lions, facing the danger of losing their lives at any moment.

However, this feeling didn’t last for long. Pei Xuanjing made a hand seal, condensing a talisman in front of him.

He belted out, “Decree!”

The talisman soared into the sky, reaching the clouds, splitting into countless pieces, spreading in all directions.

In an instant, silently, the appearance of the sky above Tiandu began to change. The whole sky gradually darkened, and in the blink of an eye, the bright and sunny midday turned into a dark and gloomy sky. Winds were howling around, much like the cries of ghosts and wolves.

Dark clouds gathered heavily around the city, on the verge of ruining the city, an oppressive atmosphere arose in everyone’s heart, shocking countless people.

This oppression didn’t come from anywhere else, but directly from the Heaven and Earth. It seemed as though their actions had enraged the Heaven and Earth, bringing about the wrath of Heaven and Earth. Everyone couldn’t help but feel a bit apprehensive due to this.

At this moment, the sound of dull thunder began to echo in the horizon, as if it was coming from a far-off place.

The next moment, a bright and dazzling electric light cut through the sky, bringing a hint of brightness to the originally dark and gloomy sky.
